Omega Handmade Soaps

The vegetable soap traded by our company, is manufactured according to ancient tradition with classic method named "cold process" with which, thanks to low temperature, it is possible to keep unchanged the active principle of used substances.
The basis of this soap formula is exclusively made of 100% coconut oil 100% pure. The manufacturing process is really slow and accurate and several manual operations are needed to achieve a high quality finished product.
Handmade soap, soft and fragrant, differs from the industrial one, hard and stony, in that the glycerin which naturally generates itself during the soap production cold process, is not removed and this is imprtant for the softness of the product.

Available in 10 fragrances, 100 gram (3.52oz) bars.

Karité Butter, Royal Jelly, Olive Oil, Blueberry, Aloe, Marigold, Sulphur, Almond, & Sandalwood

I have not, although Omega's been making fairly well regarded shaving brushes and shaving soaps for years.

One thing to note though is that that soap appears, from a brief googling, to be their hand soap (compare the graphic with this listing), rather than their shaving soap which is also available at The Golden Nib, but which has a different formula.

If you're looking for a hand soap, some of those scents look fairly appealing.

Thanks, I forgot that it was the hand soap.

Thanks, I forgot that it was the hand soap.

Well, they didn't specify, and it appears to be the only non shaving / pre-shave soap they sell, so it's a pretty easy assumption to make.

Sulphur? Doesn't sulphur smell like rotten eggs?

There are many forms of sulphur. Hydrogen sulfide does indeed smell like rotten eggs.
